Entry

Upon entering GoPro Embassy, visitors will be greeted by GoPro Embassy ambassadors. The geometric-shaped structures with shaded blue colors highlight a dynamic and energetic brand image. In this area, visitors will be informed with general exhibition information and the mission and passport process. After getting the overview, the audience can decide whether they want to register for the event for more engaged activities. For the audience who want to register for a passport, they can walk into the space behind the entry station. They can use individual stations or group stations with touch screens to create their own passport. There are instructions how it works and what they need to do to complete the missions.
Media Gallery / Individual Theater

As visitors walk into this space, they will see multiple stations for individual media experiences. Each station will show the athletes’ intimate stories from their points of view. Visitors can experience collaborative storytelling by editing existing contents with adding their voice or text. If a visitor was engaged with the event at other events stations and create their own content with GoPro camera, they can use their own contents to make a short film. 
Social Impact Lab

These are for group discussion on issues with intellectual disabilities and how people can use GoPro to improve or solve the problems. Multiple people can join this group discussion and suggest their opinions on creative ways to use GoPro products as a tool to express themselves and communicate with others.
Outdoor screening
